Answer 2

Like Clinton or hate him, history shows that he never wanted or attempted to "take over the world" (Monica maybe, but not the world). That answer is just dumb, from a neo-con who doesn't know or care about facts so long as he can attack someone with whom he thinks he disagrees.

Bush Jr. is another story. Like him or hate him, the facts show that he does want to remake our nation and the world in his image of what he thinks it should be, regardless of what others want or believe (including the American people) even if it takes limiting or destroying American liberty and human rights, torture, illegal wars and regime change, and that "line item veto" so he can bypass Constitutional checks and balances and secure even more power to himself.

P.S.: Today, Amnesty International condemned America's (read, "Bush's") "Politics of Fear" domestically and internationally. See the reference below.
